RUSSIAN LEADERS
VOTE TO ORGANIZE
[Continued From First Page]
new regimo in Russia was expressed
o-day by Foreign Secretary Mllultoff
n a statement to the Associated Press.
"The old regime was a heavy drag
lot only on Russia's relations with
her allies, but on all foreign rcla
iions," he said. "Thousands of telo
■srams of congratlatlons and good
wishes are coming from the United
States, not to speak of tho formal
recognition of the provisional govern
ment by the Washington government.
This has served to show that it is X">
the old regime which has been stand
ing for a long time in the way of
entire solidarity between the United
States and Russia."
Professor Milukoff emphasized par
ticularly his satisfaction at the atti
tude of the American Ambassador,
David R. Francis, towards the politi
cal change in Russia. lie said that
the extent to which tho new Russian
government had won the sympathies
of the American public was indicated
by a telegram he liad received from
Jacob H. Scliiff, of New York, who
was long opposed to the Rusisan auto
cracy, wishing success for the new
government in its task.
"There Is no doubt," he continued,
"that the addition of Russia to the
ranks of tho modern democratic coun
tries will strengthen tho adhesion of
the United States to the cause of the
allies. Free countries, uiay have con
lldence in Russia, especially as we
now find all free countries, allied for
the same alms."
